Key Electrical Characteristics of the CM12N60AF MOSFET

Followings are the key electrical characteristics of the CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor

  • Maximum Drain-Source Voltage (VDS)

    • The maximum drain-source voltage that can safely block between drain and source in CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor is 600V.

    This is the highest voltage the MOSFET transistor can safely block between the drain and source without damadging to the transistor.

  • Maximum Gate-Source Voltage (VGS)

    • The maximum safe voltage that can be used between the gate and source of the CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor is 30V without any harm. This limit should not be exceeded to prevent damage from the gate voltage.

  • Maximum Drain Current (ID)

    • The maximum continuous current flowing between the drain and source of the CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor is 12A. This is the highest current that can safely flow between drain and source without damaging the MOSFET transistor.

  • Drain-Source On-State Resistance (RDS(on))

    • The internal resistance between the drain and source of CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor when the transistor is fully turned on is 0.65 Ohm that defines the amount of lost power that is wasted as heat when the transistor is operating.

  • Maximum Power Dissipation (PD)

    • The maximum power that the CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor can comfortably transfer into heat without breaking is 60W. This indicates the amount of power that can safely be dissipated to the device as heat.

  • Rise Time

    • The time that the drain current or output voltage increases between low to high when the CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor is switched on is . This is the rate at which CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor switches on.

    This shows how fast the MOSFET transistor switched on.

Thermal Performance of the CM12N60AF MOSFET

  • Maximum Operating Junction Temperature

    • The maximum internal temperature of the semiconductor junction of CM12N60AF MOSFET transistor can be safely operated at the 150°C without damaging the transistor.
